Located in the province of Syracuse and nestled between the Hyblaean Mountains, the area is known for its stunning natural beauty. Participants embarked on a 12km trek through scenic woodlands and along the Anapo River, where running water streams added to the tranquil setting. The five-hour hike offered breathtaking views and a refreshing immersion in nature. The day concluded with a late lunch at a traditional agriturismo in Palazzolo Acreide (SR).
